Trans Journalist Assoc. shares thread on ‘appropriate’ way to cover Roe v. Wade since people who are not women DO get abortions and HOO BOY Posted at 10:22 am on May 6, 2022 by Sam Janney
So apparently there is a Trans Journalist Association. Hey, who knew?
And since the BIG news is Roe v. Wade right now, and Democrats magically remembered women are women (briefly for political reasons), this association felt it was important to write a thread about the appropriate way to talk about this topic since you know, men can have abortions now too.
Yeah, we made the same face. We’ve gone from, ‘No uterus no opinion,’ to ‘MEN CAN HAVE ABORTIONS TOO.’
It’s exhausting.
And speaking of exhausting:
As news coverage of Roe v. Wade continues, it is important to remember that people who are not women do get pregnant and do get abortions.
With that in mind, here are some of our best practices. 🧵

No, they don’t.
Science. But whatever.
It is unnecessary to avoid the word “women” by substituting phrases like “birthing people,” “people with uteruses” and the like. This language can offend both transgender and cisgender people.
— Trans Journalists Association (@TransJA) May 5, 2022
Ya’ think?
Oh, but it gets dumber.
Instead use phrases like abortion patients or people seeking abortions, or other wording as applicable, e.g. pregnant teens. (In many contexts, something as simple as “patients” or “people” can suffice.)

In many contexts, completely dehumanize the person by ignoring that women get pregnant.
Terms like reproductive health care or gynecological care are preferable to women’s health care. Many people (cisgender and transgender) undergo medical procedures or have health conditions that alter their reproductive processes.

NO. NO NO NO.
Women’s health care is women’s health care.
Right up there they say use women, but then they don’t want to talk about women’s health care.
Ok, SMOD, any day now.
It's sometimes important to use more limited and specific language. If discussing a study that only includes cisgender women, it would be most accurate to use gender-specific language (e.g. “pregnant women”) to reference that study’s findings.

We despise the term ‘cisgender.’
Women.
Say. Women.

Alrighty then.
Can you imagine answering that phone all day long? Yeah … no thanks.
Where does the baby come out of the non-women who give birth?

No. People who aren’t women do not get pregnant. That’s not a thing. Women get pregnant. And only women. Why are you trying to erase women?

As a man how could I carry a baby and how on hell would I deliver baby. Why is delusional thinking so PC these days?

Fair question.
And one we think we’d all like an answer to.
*** trending (Twitchy articles) -- Teachers reminded if they have a trans student ‘who doesn’t present in the way you think they need to,’ it’s the parents’ fault -- NPR ‘fact-checks’ what it calls seven ‘not-quite-right’ claims about abortion, like fetal pain
Keep lying, mentally ill demons.
Complete utter lunacy.
notice how communists always change the meaning of words and change the language.
Trans-journalist? Is that an activist who pretends to report the news?
A meltdown of truly epic proportions will follow.
That must be a Twitter thread. Looks like Biden on Adderall.
even better... Oh! you mean NORMAL and not insane!
A man has sperm. Women have eggs.
This is the only truth.
So in the trans philosophy, a trans man is as much a man as a biological man. And these mental and semantic gymnastics and erasure of women are purely to protect the tender feelings of these men. And feminists are okay with being erased to spare the feelings of women who are rejecting womanhood?
Bark at the moon.
And that will deprive you of a full hour of enjoyment.
I’m going to wait until the Babylon Bee covers this story so I know I’ll be getting the truth. :)
That would be nearly everyone who works for the corporate media outlets.
Our pastor tonight was doing a Mother’s Day sermon. At one point he said, “Let’s be clear. Men cannot get pregnant and they cannot be Mothers. It’s ridiculous we even have to say that.
These looney tunes are the same people that claim man will destroy the world with climate change. Twenty years ago, most people would dismiss them as crackpots.
I’m offended by the term cisgender
They are discriminating against people who are puppies and kittens.
As feminists and dems have said for the last 60 years......NO UTERUS,NO OPINION...ANNNND IF YOU ARE A TRANS MAN,IT MEANS YOU KEPT YOUR “LADY PARTS”.....
Trans-reporters prefer using gynecological care to women’s health care? Gyn- means woman or female, you dorks.
